contents Measuring the energy loss and mass of highly ionizing particles predicted by theories from beyond the Standard Model pose considerable challenges to conventional detection techniques. Such particles are predicted to experience energy loss to matter they pass through that exceeds the dynamic range specified for most readout chips, leading to saturation of the detectors' electronics. Consequently, achieving precise energy loss and mass measurements becomes unattainable. We present a new approach to detect such highly ionizing particles using time projection chambers that overcomes this limitation and provide a case study for triggering on magnetic monopoles.
